We loved the dog friendliness. Doggy bed in the room, dog wash area and just being in a good location in Door County! I called the hotel after booking and asked if it was okay to check in in the early morning. They said that was fine they left instructions at the front desk for us on arrival since no receptionist is there late night. We arrived in the early morning at 2am and the instructions and key were left like it was supposed to be! Definitely would stay next time we are there!

A very quaint lodge. Room was nice. Breakfast was at least or more than what you get at chain hotels. Enjoyed sitting around the fire pit and having a glass of wine. Employees were very pleasant. I would stay there again and would recommend anyone to stay there.

Like every other hotel in Door County, this is just an old, tired, stuck in the past lodge BUT CLEANER and better maintained than most of the rest. Very friendly people/ front desk. It seems no room service will fix the bed or clean the room everyday if you are there for a couple of days - unless asked, I guess???

We had a wonderful stay at Open Hearth Lodge for our anniversary. After dinner we enjoyed time around the outdoor fire pit in the evening while we saw deer stroll by. Great location near Sister Bay. The staff was very welcoming and we would definitely stay here again.

It's so relaxing to take a break in the rear of the hotel where they have a patio with tables & even a grill for you to use. The view of the trees and open land is mesmerizing. At night you can count on the gas firepit to be on for all to enjoy. There is one in the front too. Fun to hit the hot tub after a good shopping day. Good Breakfast with pancakes and Door County flavored coffee available all day. Just a few reasons why we keep on going back.

Great place to stay.

The breakfast was a little sparse, otherwise very pleasant stay. The pool was slightly cool, but we enjoyed it. The hot tub was slightly hotter than I like, but I stayed for five minutes. The fire pit seemed to keep the May flies away.
